create a function of a set of integers and a value for which you need to find the nearest one.
def find_nearest_number(numbers, target): numbers.sort() nearest_number = None smallest_difference = None for number in numbers: difference = abs(number - target) if not nearest_number or difference < smallest_difference: nearest_number = number smallest_difference = difference return nearest_number numbers = [1, 3, 5, 7] print(find_nearest_number(numbers, 4))
